Screenshots are either white or black

[kgersen]

Using the bound key setting your screenshot only shows either a white or black page with nothing else on it.

If you use standard "print screen" while in windowed mode, you will get a screenshot of your whole desktop including the allegiance window. It will only give you a black or white screenshot again in fullscreen mode.

Tested on;

Acer Netbook Intel Atom CPU N270 @ 1.60GHz 1.60GHz
Ram: 1.00 GB
OS: Win7
Monitor: 24" Widescreen Acer V223W
Display: Mobile Intel 945 Express chipset - Intel Manager installed.

you are examining the file created in your allegiance installation folder, not examining what was on the clipboard, right? can you please upload the zipped BMP.

I can't confirm that issue. I get perfect screenshots from windowed mode (lobby and training mission 6).

Must be an issue with Intel chipset.

I am confirming I am looking at the files created into in my install folder.

As a side note, using the printscreen method and pasting from my clipboard creates the same issue.

Uploading file now.

confirming issue.

Screenshots will copy to clipboard but a completely black bitmap is autosaved in the allegiance install folder.

Windowed screenshots show proper desktop with black square where alleg window is supposed to be.
